Under the water is no match for the aqua man!
One Eye Emerald

Nurg mumbled something as he shoveled Salt-O-Meal into his craw.
“When you’ve finished, please rinse out your bowl and lock yourself in the basement,” I said. “Do you remember how?”

V.U.R.R. non-nickel, a squid forest. This dear language. High hipperleg, welcome inside! Willow wink for me. Rainbow sherbet index cards. Nurse nine in rented denim, ibex, Coloradoan. Hardball/hareball. Thin mint Fiskars. Bark park arper, a real seal with a lurky rabbit’s foot. Styrophobic. Dehydrated shrimp, murt-murt.
